The stamping process involves the adding of color and texture to concrete, replicating the look of slate, stone, brick, wood or many other textures. The use of textured concrete products is growing because they are versatile, attractive, and very durable

Stamped concrete is concrete that is patterned and/or textured to resemble Brick , Stone , Tile , Slate , Wood and various other patterns and textures. Stamped concrete is commonly used for Patios , Sidewalks, Driveways, and Floors. The ability of stamped concrete to resemble other building materials makes stamped concrete a less expensive alternative to using those other materials. There are three procedures used in stamped concrete which separate it from other concrete procedures; the addition of a base color, the addition of an accent color, and stamping a pattern into the concrete. These three procedures provide stamped concrete with a color and shape similar to the natural building material.Brick textured stamped concrete.

Adding base color The base color is the primary color used in stamped concrete. The base color is chosen to reflect the color of the natural building material. The base color is produced by adding a color hardener to the concrete. Color hardener is a powder pigment used to dye the concrete. The color hardener can be applied using one of two procedures; integral color or cast-on color. Integral color is the procedure where the entire volume of concrete is dyed the base color. The entire volume of concrete is colored by adding the color hardener to the concrete truck, and allowing all the concrete in the truck to be dyed. Cast-on color is the procedure where the surface of the concrete is dyed the base color. The surface of the concrete is colored by spreading the color hardener onto the surface of the wet concrete and floating the powder into the top layer of the wet concrete.

Adding accent color The accent color is the secondary color used in stamped concrete. The secondary color is used to produce texture and show additional building materials (e.g. grout) in the stamped concrete. The accent color is produced by applying color release to the concrete. Color release has two purposes. Color release is a pigment used to color the concrete and color release is a non-adhesive used to prevent the concrete stamps from sticking to the concrete.The color release can be applied in one of two procedures; cast-on color release or spray-on color release. Cast-on color release is a procedure where the powder color release is applied by spreading the color release on the surface of the concrete before the concrete is stamped. Spray-on color release is a procedure where liquid color release is sprayed on the bottom of the concrete stamps before the concrete is stamped .

Stamping patterns The pattern is the shape of the surface of the stamped concrete. The pattern reflects the shape of the natural building material. The pattern is made by imprinting the concrete shortly after it has been poured with a "concrete stamp". Concrete stamping is the procedure which uses the concrete stamps to make the pattern in the stamped concrete. Concrete stamps are placed on the concrete after the color release has been applied. The concrete stamps are pushed into the concrete and then removed to leave the pattern in the stamped concrete. Finally the next day we pressure wash off most of the Release and seal with a Great sealer.

DECORATIVE CONCRETE CLEARWATER FL

Decorative concrete is a new way to add appeal, value, and sophistication to your home. Stamped concrete is a system of adding colors, patterns and textures to a plain concrete slab at the time of pouring. The concrete is poured, colored and then imprinted with a stamp to create the appearance of natural stone. Many different textures are available that simulate slate, granite, brick, cobblestone, or even custom designs and imprinted in concrete. Borders can be created for plain, matching or contrasting patterns. This technique can also be applied to stairs and ramps.

Once stamping is completed, a protective sealant is applied that allows the new concrete to resist oil, water, mildew, and stains. This protective sealant further improves the overall strength of the concrete and gives the surface an attractive "wet-look". An anti-slip finish can also be applied.

If you don't like the fancy and rich look of stamped concrete, you can add charm to your concrete using our colored exposed aggregate or broom finish. We offer many of different colors of aggregate and decorative borders by broom finish.
